800 Sportsman Gas mileage on street tires
Hey Folks,
The results are in, I am still in the breakin phase but I was able to get an accurate fuel milage report I went 47 Miles on 2.6 gal. = somewhere around 18MPG. Not as bad as I thought it would be. It is ALL street time, there is some HWY but mostly less then 40MPH.
